Lots of monitors nowdays support more than 1024x768 so if the EDID is
unknown then add resolutions upto 1920x1080.

IIUC it's supposed to be the fallback that's pretty much guaranteed to
work. What's going to happen if we add 1920x1080 and it fails?

Yeah unless we are now in a times where monitors fail to light up
these very low resolutions then I don't think adding more here is a
good idea. This absolute fallback list is _not_ about making things
good, but about getting anything onto the screen. If we really, really
need this (and then it needs good reasons) then a defensive approach
might be to add more modes, but still leave the old 1024x768 as the
preferred one. That would avoid any regression potential.
Otherwise this just becomes a game of "I want to have the best mode
for my broken screen without working edid as the default", which is
no-go.
